If you enjoy Northern Europe and want to extend your travels deeper into Europe; you can do so with a Pullmantur cruise into the Baltic or Scandinavia regions.

Zeebrugge

Regarded as “The Gateway to Belgium,” Zeebrugge is also the gateway to Bruges – a preserved town steeped in 13th century culture and heritage. The paths of cobbles will lead you to an extensive selection of ales and opulent chocolate, making this the perfect indulgence town. Here you can visit the De Halve Maan brewery – which offers a tour of the beer making process. The Choco-Story Museum is also worth a visit and offers visitors a unique insight into the transition of cocoa into chocolate; with even the opportunity to witness the chocolate making process where you can sample the delights for yourself.

Le Havre

A visit to the French port city of Le Havre, Normandy, on board a Charms of Europe Cruise will lead travellers through the poignant and dark history of World War 2. The allied landings of D-Day, 6 June 1944, live on in the memories of the Americans and British alike and it remains the largest seaborne invasion in history. Today, the port of Le Havre is France’s second largest and the town has undergone a major reconstruction; with many cultural sites of interest and an array of museums and religious sites.
